Sure, you are welcome. I am not a fan of either of the teams, but I am rooting for Straka to finally win one title to conclude his great career. Him and Jagr are pretty much the last active players I have known personally, and while I respect Jagr (especially lately), I really liked Straka. One reason was that he never waited for me to greet him, but if he noticed me first, he immediately said "hello" himself. That un-star, unassuming, polite behavior goes a long way in my book. (I like to think it was NOT because despite the same age, I got a good head start on Straka in terms of graying and balding - even in my 20's

).
[Incidentally, among the members of media, the similar level of politeness has always been expressed mainly by - none other than Mark Madden.]
